“They need to drop a show about the toxic sketches” y’all couldnt handle that rose quartz wasnt a good person
#Like sorry if u ever made a post saying that the garnet Pearl thing as an allegory for SA was stupid I don’t think ur readdyyy#if u think the colonialism allegory is a stretch I don’t think u could handle amethyst pretending to be Lars or whatever#like that’s the too deep ‘it’s a kids show!’ shit y’all hated#well actually nvm y’all only hate when we say white liberalism is white#so if it was white ppl being toxic on a kids show it wouldn’t matter#and y’all wouldn’t be showing benevolent racism towards amethyst if it was that way it’d be full macroaggressions#look at the what u did to bismuth#and after that onyx sketch I don’t think sugar coulda handled all that well#it took a few seasons to get garnet away from black strong and silent#I will admit that payoff was nice until they made EVERYTHING about fusion and shoehorned her into team therapist#but they did reel me back in with the cat episode and her breakdown there#but tbh for garnet specifically that’s a fans being more racist than the show issue#like the way ekko or Duke are well written but fans do the stereotype thing anyways#uhm anyways yeah if u can’t say the word racism when talking about SU or it’s fans you wouldn’t have been able to handle gregpearl 😩#oh and caveat for the actual post#my definitions of good and bad are convoluted as hell and I might expand on my rose thoughts fr one day#but for now I’m not saying good or bad. like I don’t think she’s a good person but I think it’s bc she’s naive but I cannot stand naivety#as a character trait so I do heavily dislike her#but like. as objective as I can get she just sorta doesn’t realize that other ppl can’t do whatever they want#In the sense that other ppl are bound by things like responsibilities and relationships#and the one tether who could’ve taught her that - Steven - is what killed her#like believe me rose and freedom and what she sees as freedoms is soooooo interesting to me I fucking love it#I cannot stand ‘she’s not a bad person bc she was abused’ or ‘she didn’t mean to’#but diff story diff time
